Artists use it for drawing. I use one of mine mostly for taking more legible notes. Using a stylus is more comfortable than using literally writing by hand for people like me.Originally Posted by vysakh
My iFaraday stylus is my favorite and I use it to scribble a short note in a meeting when I get tired of typing.
I use a stylus to take notes for college courses. I have to actually hand write info to commit it to memory, and with apps I can download my professor's power points and write or sketch right on the slides! Saves me tons of time, paper, and ink to not have to print them out or find what I am looking for when studying. I also love to write instead of type when writing creatively for anything so I find I prefer to use my stylus if I can choose.
Her is a thread with some good feedback on stylus iPad Stylus used for writing???
I still use the iFaraday, Adonit Jot and AluPen. Although my AluPen seems to be hiding from me in my couch cushions somewhere at the moment. Good luck on the stylus search.

I use the Cosmonaut stylus. It is a little bigger than most, but that fits my hand better. I like the rubbery feel of it. Mostly what I use it for is to grade papers - I am a teacher who is trying to have a paperless classroom, so when students email me their work, I can annotate it and write their grade on there, just like it was a piece of paper. I also sometimes paint with various apps.

Anyone using this? If so, how do you like it for sketching and writing?

An update: I'm still using the first of the five I bought approx 5 months ago. I've given three away, lost one and the tip fell off the one I use and I haven't found it yet. I went on to Amazon to reorder from Hong Kong but they appear to have shot up from 90p to £3.99 each! I continued looking and found the same model,well it looks the same, for 60p each p&p free from UK. I've ordered another 5........yes I'm a big spender but what's £3 nowadays ? If they are any good I'll let you know, if they're not you'll still hear from me.
